SHEIK GUMI CALLS OUT THE GOVERNMENT FOR FAILING TO DIALOGUE WITH BOKO HARAM, B@NDITS LIKE THEY DID WITH NIGER-DELTA MILITANTS

Controversial Islamic cleric, Ahmad Gumi, has questioned why no government official has visited Boko Haram t£rrorists and b@ndits to negotiate an end to their vi%lence, the way past Nigerian leaders engaged Niger Delta militants.

In a Facebook post on Saturday, Gumi recalled that former President Goodluck Jonathan and former Vice President Yemi Osinbajo both visited militants in the Niger Delta creeks and returned with programmes aimed at ending militancy in the region.

“The former President Jonathan visited delta militants in the creeks, so also the former vice president Osinbajo. They all came up with a program to tame the militants,” he wrote.

He then asked who would be willing to extend similar engagement to Boko Haram and bandits without facing public criticism.

“Who is going to visit BH and Bandits to tame them without f%%ls castigating them?” he asked.

Gumi, who has consistently advocated dialogue with armed groups in the North-West and North-East, has previously visited b@ndit camps in Zamfara and other states, arguing that negotiation rather than military force offers a better chance of ending the vi%lence.

The cleric has repeatedly denied supporting terr%rism, insisting his advocacy is solely aimed at ending the bl%%dshed through dialogue and rehabilitation.

IF MY MAN EARNS 5K, HE SHOULD GIVE ME AT LEAST 3K; THE DAY HE ASKS ME FOR MONEY, HE'LL NEVER HEAR FROM ME AGAIN" - TOKE

Image
Media personality Toke Makinwa has said she has never been in a relationship where a man asked her for money, adding that she considers it a deal breaker if a partner ever does. Speaking during a recent episode of her podcast, Toke Moments, which featured reality TV star Mercy Eke, Makinwa reflected on conversations about women being asked to financially support their partners. She said she often wonders why she has never had such an experience. “When I hear women say these things, I sit down and I ask myself, why don’t men ask me for money? Men don’t ask me for money.” She jokingly suggested that perhaps the way she presents herself or shares her own challenges discourages men from asking her for financial assistance. “Maybe there is something on my head. Maybe because before you ask me, I’m already giving you all my problems? As soon as you say how are you? Today I have a headache.’ Maybe that’s why.” Makinwa maintained that even the men she had dated who were not financi...

WHY YOU MUST NEVER PUT YOUR BROTHER OR YOUR FATHER AS YOUR NEXT OF KIN - PASTOR SARAH OMYAKWU

Image
Pastor Sarah Omyakwu has advised married couples to prioritize their spouses and children when choosing a next of kin, saying they should be regarded as the immediate family. Speaking during a sermon, she said, “Men, you don’t put next of kin as your brother or your father, because your brother is not going to take care of your children. He will take care of his children first before your children.” She stressed that a man’s wife and children should come first, adding, “Your people are your wife and your children first. They are your next of kin, not your mother, not your father, not your brother.” Addressing married women, Pastor Omakwu said the same principle applies to them, stating, “The same thing with your wife.
